To Thee, O Dear, Dear Savior!
Author: John S. B. Monsell Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 79 hymnals Matching Instances: 28 First Line: To Thee, O dear, dear Savior Lyrics: 1. To Thee, O dear, dear Savior!
My spirit turns for rest,
My peace is in Thy favor,
My pillow on Thy breast!
Though all the world deceive me,
I know that I am Thine,
And Thou wilt never leave me,
O blessèd Savior mine.
2. In Thee my trust abideth,
On Thee my hope relies,
O Thou whose love provideth
For all beneath the skies;
O Thou whose mercy found me,
From bondage set me free,
And then forever bound me
With threefold cords to Thee.
3. My grief is in the dullness
With which this sluggish heart
Doth open to the fullness
Of all Thou wouldst impart;
My joy is in Thy beauty
Of holiness divine,
My comfort in the duty
That binds my life in Thine.
4. Alas, that I should ever
Have failed in love to Thee,
The only one who never
Forgot or slighted me!
O for a heart to love Thee
More truly as I ought,
And nothing place above Thee
In deed, or word, or thought.
5. O for that choicest blessing
Of living in Thy love,
And thus on earth possessing
The peace of Heav’n above;
O for the bliss that by it
The soul securely knows
The holy calm and quiet
Of faith’s serene repose! Used With Tune: SAVOY CHAPEL Text Sources: Hymns of Love and Praise, 1863

I Need Thee, Precious Jesus
Author: Frederick Whitfield Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 303 hymnals Matching Instances: 6 Lyrics: 1. I need Thee, precious Jesus,
For I am full of sin;
My soul is dark and guilty,
My heart is dead within.
I need the cleansing fountain
Where I can always flee,
The blood of Christ most precious,
The sinner’s perfect plea.
2. I need Thee, precious Jesus,
For I am very poor;
A stranger and a pilgrim,
I have no earthly store.
I need the love of Jesus
To cheer me on my way,
To guide my doubting footsteps,
To be my strength and stay.
3. I need Thee, precious Jesus,
I need a friend like Thee,
A friend to soothe and pity,
A friend to care for me.
I need the heart of Jesus
To feel each anxious care,
To tell my every trouble,
And all my sorrows share.
4. I need Thee, precious Jesus,
I need Thee, day by day,
To fill me with Thy fullness,
To lead me on my way;
I need Thy Holy Spirit,
To teach me what I am,
To show me more of Jesus,
To point me to the Lamb.
5. I need Thee, precious Jesus,
And hope to see Thee soon,
Encircled with the rainbow
And seated on Thy throne.
There, with Thy blood bought children,
My joy shall ever be,
To sing Thy praises, Jesu,
To gaze, O Lord, on Thee. Used With Tune: SAVOY CHAPEL

'Tis Not That I Did Choose Thee
Author: Josiah Conder Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 77 hymnals Matching Instances: 6 Lyrics: 1. ’Tis not that I did choose Thee,
For Lord, that could not be;
This heart would still refuse Thee,
Hadst Thou not chosen me.
Thou from the sin that stained me
Hast cleansed and set me free;
Of old Thou hast ordained me,
That I should live to Thee.
2. ’Twas sov’reign mercy called me
And taught my opening mind;
The world had else enthralled me,
To heav’nly glories blind.
My heart owns none before Thee,
For Thy rich grace I thirst;
This knowing, if I love Thee,
Thou must have loved me first. Used With Tune: SAVOY CHAPEL

O Father, All-Creating
Author: John Ellerton Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 47 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 First Line: O Father, all creating Lyrics: 1 O Father all-creating,
whose wisdom, love, and pow'r
first bound two lives together
in Eden's primal hour,
today to these thy children
thine earliest gifts renew,
a home by thee made happy,
a love by thee kept true.
2 O Savior, guest most bounteous
of old in Galilee,
vouchsafe today thy presence
with these who call on thee;
their store of earthly gladness
transform to heav'nly wine,
and teach them in the tasting
To know the gift is thine.
3 O Spirit of the Father,
breathe on them from above,
so mighty in thy pureness
so tender in thy love,
that, guarded by thy presence,
from sin and strife kept free,
their lives may own thy guidance,
their hearts be ruled by thee.
4 Except thou build it, Father,
the house is built in vain;
except thou, Savior, bless it,
the joy will turn to pain;
but naught can break the union
of hearts in thee made one;
and love thy Spirit hallows
is endless love begun.

O Father, All-Creating
And Is the Time Approaching?
Author: Jane Borthwick Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 61 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 First Line: And is the time approaching Lyrics: 1. And is the time approaching,
By prophets long foretold,
When all shall dwell together,
One Shepherd and one fold?
Shall every idol perish,
To moles and bats be thrown,
And every prayer be offered
To God in Christ alone?
2. Shall Jew and Gentile, meeting
From many a distant shore,
Around one altar kneeling,
One common Lord adore?
Shall all that now divides us
Remove, and pass away
Like shadows of the morning
Before the blaze of day?
3. Shall all that now unites us
More sweet and lasting prove,
A closer bond of union
In a blest land of love?
Shall war be learned no longer,
Shall strife and tumult cease;
All earth His blessèd kingdom,
The Lord and Prince of Peace?
4. O long expected dawning,
Come with Thy cheering ray;
When shall the morning brighten,
The shadows flee away?
O sweet anticipation!
It cheers the watchers on
To pray, and hope, and labor,
Till the dark night be gone. Used With Tune: SAVOY CHAPEL Text Sources: Thoughtful Hours, 1859
